Information

Turbo

As a normal snail, Turbo has the number 5 painted on his real shell and he tries to practice racing.

After racing in the Indianapolis 500, Turbo now wears a specially designed shell, much like those that Whiplash and his crew wear, including Chet who gets a special safety shell.

Turbo FAST

Personality

Turbo (Theo) is a snail who dreams of being the fastest, and best racer of the entire world. He has an obsession with speed which causes Chet, his older brother, to be embarrassed. Turbo believes that "no dream is too big, and no dreamer is too small."

Powers & Abilities

He was a normal snail until he was flung into the top-mounted engine of a nitro-powered street racing car. When the driver of the car activated the car's nitro boost, the chamber Turbo wound up in was flooded with nitrous oxide, which granted him his powers.

Automobile Mutation

Theo's genetic structure mutated from nitrous oxide. He was gifted with super speed a few traits of an automobile, such as eye lights, a car alarm in his shell, tail lights and receiving radio music.

Super Speed

As a result of his genetic structure mutated from nitrous oxide, Turbo can accelerate to high speeds that surpass most race cars.

Trivia

  • Theo is voiced by Ryan Reynolds, who also did the voice of Guy who was the love interest of Eep from Dreamworks' The Croods, released in 2013, the same year as Turbo.
  • In Wreck-it Ralph from 2012, the villain, Turbo (probably the inspiration), is a racer and has the same name as Theo.
  • The car that Theo got the nitrous oxide from that made him fast is a 2011 Chevrolet Camaro.
  • When got his super speed, it reflects his desire to be fast and his love of racing.
  • When showing the audience his speed, his record was 226 miles, which broke Guy Gagné's record.

  • When Theo's shell glows, he leaves a light-blue stream whenever he crawls.
